Inventor: BORST CORNELIUS
IPC: A61B19/00
Filed: 1996-09-19
Abstract: An apparatus for temporarily immobilizing a local area of
tissue. In particular, the present invention provides a method and apparatus for
temporarily immobilizing a local area of heart tissue to thereby permit surgery on a
coronary vessel in that area without significant deterioration of the pumping
function of the beating heart. The local area of heart tissue is immobilized to a
degree sufficient to permit minimally invasive or micro-surgery on that area of the
heart. The present invention features a suction device to accomplish the
immobilization. The suction device is coupled to a source of negative pressure.
The suction device has a series of suction ports on one surface. Suction through the
device causes suction to be maintained at the ports. The device further is shaped to
conform to the surface of the heart. Thus, when the device is placed on the surface
of the heart and suction is created, the suction through the ports engages the surface
of the heart. The suction device is further fixed or immobilized to a stationary
object, such as an operating table or a sternal or rib retractor. Thus, the local area
of the heart near the suction device is temporarily fixed or immobilized relative to
the stationary object while suction is maintained. In such a fashion, the coronary
artery may be immobilized even though the heart itself is still beating so that a
bypass graft may be performed. In addition the suction device may be used in
either a conventional, open-chest environment or in a minimally-invasive
environment, e.g. endoscopic.

Inventor: BOSTOEN TOM
IPC: G01R27/06
Filed: 2002-10-18
Abstract: In the process of estimating attributes of a transmission line from
reflectometry measurements, small yet important reflections may be
drowned in the immediate reflected signal owing to the mismatch between
the reference impedance with respect to which the 1-port scattering
parameter of the line has been determined and the characteristic impedance
of the line. 
     The major part of the near-end reflections are eliminated by
estimating the characteristic impedance of the line, and by converting the 1-port
scattering parameter of the line from the reference impedance base to
the estimated characteristic impedance base. 
     However, there is still a residual influence of the near-end
reflections. It is then highly necessary to determine a time zone wherein the
residual near-end reflections are enclosed so as their contribution is further
neutralized in the process of estimating attributes of the transmission line.
